At a concert, Yuichi Saito was playing a piano, and he played like Beethoven,
performing in front of an audience. The melody of the piano was very endearing to
the audience, as Yuichi's performance was one of the best. Then he was sucked
into the piano, and Tezuka, who was among the audience, attempted to save Yuichi,
then suddenly, a Digimon appeared from the inside of the piano and grabbed Tezuka,
pulling him in along with Yuichi…
POOF!
Eyes wide open. Sweat over his forehead. It was several hours past midnight.
Miyuki Tezuka got up, and was glad that he didn't woke up screaming. This was the
first nightmare he had after several months. He stared at his bandaged right hand,
which serves as a constant reminder that his target has reappeared, and he knew that
the moment of truth is almost at hand.

Don't Look Back Again by WAG
(Opening song from Saiyuki Reload-Gunlock)
Bokutachi wa ikiru hodo ni sukoshi zutsu nakushite yuku
Umareru inochi ga areba namida, warai, shi mo atte
Dou ni mo naranai koto nante nai
Ososugiru koto nante, hontou wa hitotsu mo nai no sa
Tooku hateshinai michi, kyou mo tsuzuku
Hikari sae miushinatte, samayotta toshite mo
Don't look back again
Dare datte kunoushite, aruite yukunda
Sou sakebi tsuzukete, kizutsuitemo, asu o mitsukete
Wasuresarareta koukai mo tsumi mo
Ai mo zenbu dakishimete
Kekka wa futatsu shika nai umakuikuka, ikanai ka
Umakuikeba banbanzai, umakuikanakereba
Soko kara manabeba ii!
Kowagaranai, kowagaranai, ichiban osoroshii koto wa
Chousen o shinaku naru koto
Bokura wa ima ikite ita nani o mitsuketeku darou
Don't look back again
Samazama na koto de, afureteru jidai de
Ima dakara koso, sou, konna toki koso jibun rashisa nuite
Jibun ga ichiban suki na jibun de
Korekaramo aritsuzukete
Dare no me mo ki ni sezu ni!
Hoshii nara kawakikiru mae ni ima torimodose
Don't look back again
Namida no kazu dake kokoro ni kizande
Naite mo ii to omou kokoro ga ugoite iru wake dakara
Don't look back again
Dare datte kunoushite, aruite yukunda
Sou sakebi tsuzukete, kizutsuitemo, asu o mitsukete
Wasuresarareta koukai mo tsumi mo

Ok, so I'm a Saiyuki fan, but thanks to Animax-Asia, specifically the Philippines, the
Saiyuki series (Reload and Reload-Gunlock) has become somewhat stale, due to
the bad dubbing, and that subtitled animes are now a big no-no to them. So now I'm
sticking to fansubs.
Raia's RevengeIt was 9 in the morning, and Tezuka was helping Shinji preparing the tables and chairs
as the restaurant will open in an hour. Ren left early and went to Kyoto General Hospital
to check on Eri. Yuri went to the market to buy food for the teahouse. Kyuu, Megumi,
Daisuke (with V-Mon), Hikari (with Tailmon), Miyako (with Hawkmon), and Takeru
(with Patamon) were there to help out in preparing the teahouse. Throughout the day things
went well, but Kyuu, Daisuke and Hikari were the only ones to notice Tezuka's silence.
Kyuu decided to ask Tezuka if he has a problem, so that he could help him. Tezuka politely
said he was ok. Kyuu then decided not to pursue that angle for now and left Tezuka alone.
By evening everyone went home and went to bed. Kyuu and Megumi decided to stay at the
teahouse for the night. Daisuke and Hikari also decided to stay over in case the Zodiac members
came in and barge their way through here. And…(he, he, he) Kyuu and Megumi couldn't resist
the urge, and the two were making love in one of the guest rooms (lucky for them Kyuu brought
some protection, and he and Megumi managed to lower their voices as not to wake up the others)
and then went to sleep (the peek under the skirt thing seem to get stale, so I decided to put
more joke emphasis on Kyuu and Megumi by having them playing "hookie", but I won't border
too much on the lemon part. This is a T-rated fic, not M).
By morning, it was a day off for the Atori Tea House, and Ren, Shinji and Tezuka left early.
Daisuke got up and decided to wake up Kyuu and Megumi, and found them covered only by their
blanket, and that their clothes were scattered on the floor, and the protection was sprawled on the floor,
almost spilling the contents. Hikari came in and blushed at the scene. Kyuu and Megumi woke up, and
also blushed after seeing Daisuke and Hikari staring at them, and blushed even harder as Yuri saw them,
and Daisuke began to tease them anew, only to be silenced by Hikari twisting his ear. Yuri giggled at
the scene, and motions Kyuu and Megumi to arrange themselves as she, Hikari and Daisuke left.
Shinji went to work at the ORE Journal after Shinji submitted his report on the Zodiac's apparent disbandment.
Ren went to Kyoto General Hospital to check on Eri. Tezuka on the other hand, was sitting by the
bench at a local restaurant, his thoughts remained on the Suzaku residence and the Digimon who attacked
him. Shinji was passing by, and saw Tezuka sitting by the chair. He then dropped by and asked Tezuka
what's the problem. Tezuka was a bit hesitant. Shinji then asked why he became a Zodiac member.
Tezuka sighed, and said that he was never a Zodiac member, and said that he inherited the Uoza card
deck from his friend. Shinji looked confused, and Tezuka left, heading towards the car park. Shinji
decided to follow him, wanting to know why Tezuka was silent since going to the Suzaku residence.
Daisuke and V-Mon were passing by, and saw Shinji following Tezuka. Curiously, they decided to follow them.
At the car park, Tezuka was about to board his motorcycle when he suddenly stood still, as he felt a
presence near him. Shinji also stopped, and saw Tezuka from afar, acting strange. Daisuke and V-Mon
went behind Shinji and saw what's happening. V-Mon then told Daisuke and Shinji that a portal was
forming behind Tezuka. Suddenly, an orange tentacle appeared and fasten around Tezuka's neck,
dragging him inside the portal. Tezuka managed to look at the portal, and saw who the attacker was.
"Ebimon!" Tezuka thought, and tried to break free. Daisuke and Shinji saw this and went towards Tezuka.
Daisuke told V-Mon to evolve.
- - - START DIGIMON EVOLVE SEQUENCE - - -
Daisuke: Digi-Egg up!
V-Mon Armor-Digivolves…to Fladramonon!
- - - END DIGIMON EVOLVE SEQUENCE - - -
Tezuka was grappling on his motorcycle, trying to break free from his attacker's tentacle. He then took
out his card deck, and the metallic belt appeared, and fastens around his waist. Tezuka then chanted
"Henshin!", and transformed into Raia. The transformation caused the attacker to release his tentacle from
Raia and retreated. When Daisuke and Fladramon arrived, Raia entered the portal, while Shinji changed
to Ryuki, and he and Daisuke and Fladramon entered the portal, which leads them to the Digimon world.
Fladramon then saw Raia attacking the Digimon, and recognized it as an Ebimon.
- - - START DIGIMON DIGEST - - -
Ebimon: A crustacean-type Digimon that resembles a humanoid lobster. An Ebimon is vicious and carnivorous.
It also consumes both Digimons and humans. And has no remorse in killing its victims. He kills his prey by
strangling them with his two tentacles.
- - - END DIGIMON DIGEST - - -
The Ebimon then hurled Raia against a wall, and Fladramon went towards the attacker, and the two matched
each others' strengths. Ryuki activated his Sword Vent and helps out Fladramon But the Ebimon proved to
be too strong for them, and hurled both Ryuki and Fladramon against a corner. Raia then took out a card, and
inserted it into the slot of the Exo-Visor. "COPY VENTO". Raia then got a Sword Vent of his own, and recklessly
attacked the Ebimon. Ryuki and Fladramon were surprised, for this was the first time to see Raia acting violent.
Even Daisuke was shocked to see the turn of events. The Ebimon then hurled Raia against Ryuki and Fladramon
sending them to the ground. Ryuki then helped up Raia. He was about to get a card when Raia grabbed him by
the arm and said, "No! He's mine! I'll finish him off!". After that he pushed Ryuki aside, and grabbed a card.
It was the Final Vent. Yuichi's sad face suddenly flashed into his mind, then he inserted it to the Exo-Visor.
"FINAL VENTO". Exo-Diver appeared, and Raia mounted Exo-Diver and ferociously went towards the Ebimon.
The Ebimon flew towards Exo-Diver, and the two collided, and an explosion occurred. As the smoke cleared,
Raia and Exo-Diver emerged, and Raia jumped off Exo-Diver, and stood on the ground in total silence. Ryuki,
Daisuke and Fladramon were wondering what happened here and why Tezuka was acting out of character.
Meanwhile, at the Atori Teahouse, Ren arrived an hour ago and he was cleaning the tables when a young man
appeared by the doorstep. Ren recognized the man, it was To-Rasu's bodyguard and assistant, Goro Yura.
Goro then spoke to Ren and said, "Where's Asakura?". Ren said that he don't know, since Asakura spent his
time hiding in the streets. "Fine, I'll find him myself, and kill him. Then Attorney won't have to face him." Goro
pledges and left. Ren stared in shock, but after five minutes, Ren decided to go after him. He then spotted
Venosnaker trailing Goro, and saw Goro and Asakura staring at each other, and Goro was poised to fight Asakura,
when Venosnaker coiled itself around Goro and descended into the yellow square, and Asakura followed, and
the square disappeared. Ren then realized that Goro was in danger. Ren then went back to the Tea House, and
checked the phone directory, and found Kitaoka's home address. After Shido Suzaku told Ren the alter egos of
the Zodiac fighters, including To-Rasu, Ren then knew how to track down the rest. But for know, he'll have to
aid one of his opponents to save someone connected to Kitaoka.

This was one of my favorite theme songs, and it fits here as this fic's ending theme.
Preview:
Asakura called To-Rasu, threatening to kill Goro if he doesn'r give in to his demands: bring the rest
of the Zodiac fighters to a specific place.
Ren then told Kitaoka about it, but ended up fighting him. In other words…it's
Iteza (Sagittarius) vs. To-Rasu (Taurus).
As for the aftermath of Raia's revenge over the Ebimon, It will be revealed in the next, next chapter.
